It’s something we are all touched by. No matter what culture we’re from, everyone loves music.” ~ Billy Joel   The fact is, there isn’t a single human culture on earth that has lived without music in its many forms; for rituals and healing ceremonies, to ease stress, soothe pain and help with sleeping patterns.  Those that have said music heals the soul, appear to be right.......so why not get in touch with your inner self and treat yourself to a day or two in Whitby this Autumn! No need to worry about searching for food and drinks on the day either, there will be a range of alcoholic/non-alcoholic beverages, real ales available and a varied menu that should meet everyone's taste!There is no doubt that this festival will be of interest to many local people and those visiting the area, and if you could help bring it to their attention, it would be very much appreciated Don't miss out on going to Whitby Blues, Rhythm and Rock Festival on Saturday 14th October!  The festival will take place at Whitby Pavilion, West Cliff, Whitby, North Yorkshire YO21 3ENAdvance tickets are only £29.00 and can be purchased by calling 01472 349 222 or online at http://www.whitbybluesfestival.co.uk/tickets.html
